Books

Maybe her books should have their own article? 24.124.29.130 (talk) 07:05, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

BLP Concerns

This article needs a complete revamp with somebody familiar with the subject. The tone is terrible when we are clearly writing about a living person. Discussion of alcohol problems is probly not the place. -- BpEps - t@lk 15:50, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

"See also" section

Per recent discussion, I can find no justification for the listings under the See also section. Failing substantial reasoning, I will remove them again shortly. - SummerPhD (talk) 20:17, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Actually, per the discussion, you have been given substantial reasons (not that that was even necessary; the connection between the models is obvious to anyone). Anyone can see that they're related articles; you're the only one who can't, or rather refuses to. You also haven't provided any substantial reasons for their removal. You've only insisted that they're "not related", and alluded to some bizarre Alice Cooper connection. What on Earth does Alice Cooper have to do with any of these women let alone Iman? Is he a woman? No. Is he Somali? No. Is he a model? No. Is he in any way related to any of these women? No. Worked with them, perhaps? No. Are they inspirations/mentors for him? No. Like I said, no reasons have been provided for the removal of these See Also links (which isn't even supported by WP:SEEALSO anyway), only for their inclusion.
